Great loop spotting! Recently I was messing around with parquet files in Python and ended up needing to ship the results on Windows, without a Windows machine to test on. Shipping Python to end users is half mad already, and doing it on Win

Of course I meant that it won't make data up. It can only emit SQL and the json spec of the chart. Since shipping I've reviewed dozens of queries and charts it produces answering the user. I'm yet to catch sonnet off guard.

Yes it's that, in particular `duplicate-code`. `pylint . --disable=R0801` will work, `pylint profiling/ --enable=duplicate-code` doesn't seem to exit in a reasonable time. So that's likely hitting some pathological case,

TBH this is true only on the root of black. If you do `uvx pylint src/` it takes 5s on my machine. It's still impressive but it looks like a pathological case in a test directory.

This. I've recently used both duckdb and sqlite to power a dashboard for a small restaurant of a family member. It converts all their sales to a very tiny parquet files, daily. The file fits in memory and can do all sort of computation

Context is that which is scarce. It's hard to predict what parts of shared understanding we have today is going to be scarce tomorrow. And one can't serialize _all_ of that current shared understanding in documents and integration

Thank you, I was too eager copy-pasting YT transcriptions.

Related to this, the concept of "free as in puppies" from D. Richard Hipp, creator of SQLite: > Suppose you had a pull request for SQLite. "Hey, I've got this new feature for SQLite. Here's the pull request.&quot

Is this what Cursor uses or a standard I'm unaware of?

Thank you for resurfacing this, it has been my daily commute read for years, it was great!

With what credit card provider? I've done it multiple times when a vendor wasn't behaving fairly and it always went through. I don't recommend doing it to a vendor you plan to have business with again in the future as they mi

50k LOC wouled be the rust code without tests. But it's not apples to apples because they seem to have done much more performance work though, this is far from code golfing.

This is uncharitable, but makes a prediction. I imagine you'd bet the author won't be successfully using this, at MS/Uber or wherever they are, in a year time? Rust makes no promise of being terser than C++, and RSL does less

Also that, I suspect that's correlated to how practical is to have multiple people (with their agents) iterating on it.

It just an anchor. If it were 50k would you say the same down to 25k? And if so how many more times would it apply? The interesting thing is that it was manageable solo (in many ways it's _more_ manageable solo+AIs than with coworkers+

The standard biology formula for heritability is h = Var(genetic) / Var(phenotypic) Which I bet is very useful for some kind of technical work, but it's amusingly confusing to lay people. The author goes on to critique its misuses
